PORON® ShockPad Foam

Now available as thin as 0.10 mm!

The newest smartphones, tablets and other mobile internet devices (MID) are as slim as ever, and designers are being asked to fit even more features and gadgets into these tiny packages. As part of space-saving designs, the display, the printed wiring board, and other electrical components are compacted into very thin spaces. Unfortunately, these components often lack proper impact protection technology. How can Rogers help?

PORON® ShockPad Foam has always been a reliable impact solution when used behind gasketless MID displays, in front of printed wiring boards (PWB) and alongside other internal components. Now, with an even thinner profile, ShockPad is more versatile than ever.
